History of Nomos Glashütte
Nomos Glashütte was formed by Roland Schwertner in 1990, a mere two months after the fall of the Berlin wall. The company employs over 200 people worldwide and is the largest producer of mechanical timepieces in Germany.
Nomos Glashütte designs its watches in its workshop in Berlin and produces them in Glashütte. Glashütte is a small town south of Berlin, near Dresden in Germany, world-famous for its watches and watchmakers for over 170 years.
Since the first time Nomos Glashütte timepieces hit the market in 1992, they were designed to be unisex. Nomos do not label their models as made exclusively for either men or women, regardless of the size of the case. And all of their timepieces wear great on the wrist.
Since 2005, Nomos develops and produces all its movements in-house. Almost everything is made by the brand, from the bridges to the beveled edges. The brand has a highly recognizable Bauhaus style, originally the design of Susanne Günther.
